PIC 16F887 Based Digital Thermometer

Introduction
The hardware configuration when using multiple 1-Wire temperature sensors like the DS1820 is very simple, as illustrated in the block diagram below. A single-wire bus is used for communication between the microcontroller and the temperature sensor. It is also possible to power the devices direclty via this 1-Wire bus. An almost unlimited number of 1-WireTM devices can be connected to the bus because each device has a unique 64-bit ROM code identifier which is used to address each sensor.










Temperature measurement using DS1820 sensor. Use of ‘1-wire’ protocol...
Temperature measurement is one of the most common tasks performed by the microcontroller. A DS1820 sensor is used for measurement here. It is capable of measuring temperature in the range of -55 °C to 125 °C with 0.5 °C accuracy. For the purpose of transferring data to the microcontroller, a special type of serial communication called 1-wire is used.

Due to a simple and wide use of these sensors, commands used to run and control them are in the form of functions stored in the One_Wire library. There are three functions in total:
  • Ow_Reset is used for reseting sensor;
  • Ow_Read is used for receiving data from sensor; and
  • Ow_Write is used for sending commands to sensor.
Concretely, you don’t have to study documentation provided by the manufacturer in order to use this sensor. It is sufficient to copy some of these functions in the program.

Circuit 

This project describes how to read temperature from a DS1820 sensor with a PIC16F887 microcontroller and display the temperature value in an LCD display. The temperature will be displayed in Centigrade unit . The temperature resolution is 1 degree.
PIC16F887 DS1820 data will be read at RE2 port.

Electronic Voting Machine Using 8051 Microcontroller (AT89C51)

  Circuit Electronic voting machine has now replaced the traditional mechanism of voting due to several advantages like security, automatic counting etc. This project presents a way to develop an electronic voting machine which displays the count of votes on a 16x2 LCD interface. A user can get his/her vote register through a set of switches (one for each candidate). After every cast of vote, the subsequent count can be seen on LCD. The circuit uses AT89C51 microcontroller and the code for the project has been written in C. This LCD based electronic voting machine is designed for four candidates. The input part consists of a set of six tactile switches. The switches and 16x2 LCD are interfaced to microcontroller AT89C51 for various operations and displays. The provision of casting votes for the candidates has been provided through four of these switches. These switches are made active high and connected to pins 2-5 (P1^1 – P1^4) of the controller. The remaining two

PC Based Digital Voltmeter Using PIC 16F877A

Voltmeter C# .Net PIC, Arduino, AVR This is a simple voltmeter which measures 0-5V at a precision of 4.8 mV. This is a simple design using inbuilt ADC of PIC 16F877A. PIC 16F877A have 8 channel 10bit ADC.   This is a computer interfaced project. Measured voltage is output in serial interface software in computer. There is a serial interface circuit (MAX232) is necessary for interfacing with computer, which is not included in the circuit. Please check       PIC Serial Communication Tutorial (UART)   for the circuit and more details. Using one of the most popular 8 bit PIC 16f877A, for instance, reading the datasheet , we'll find that the ADC modules (10 bit) are controlled by four different registers. The first two, ADCON0 and ADCON1 , are used to set and start the ADC module. When high level language is used, the programmer doesn't need to care a lot of the register connected to the results because they are normally stored in a variable by a rout
